Toxic this, toxic that! :( Here's some positivity for a change!

Hey, you.

Just wanted to let you know, no matter your rank, no matter your ability to play in the game. You'll get to where you want to be in League one day, and sooner then you'd think if you allow yourself to practice more on a maintained schedule or just free time, and learn from your mistakes, while helping others fix theirs, because although you can do it alone, what's the point of being super successful if you have no one to share the experience, teachings, and games with? That's right, so here's my thoughts on it all!

Now i could blab on for a millennium about why what you say, do, and how you act in and out of League matches and not just league, any game you play that requires a good state of mind and teamwork in general can affect your game in many ways, as well as the others around you and in-game or i could say this tiny portion of the tons and tons of stuff you'll hear day in and out from others.

Be an unforgettably amazing teammate: do what's best for your team and yourself, try your best no matter the circumstances are, you'll gain a lot more then just a win in a "video game", physically and mentally you'll be raising your level of confidence and social skills while also seeing the real raw results of it as you change, and as Kha'Zix says "Change.. is goooood" be your best, give them something to remember you by, whether it be that play you made, how you never gave up, or the whole heartedly sportsmanship you had shown the entire game.

Game's can go on for long periods of time: most people get impatient, or annoyed with every mis-play or mistake, make every game feel like it's your last, and listen to your teammates advice, and ideas, don't be a leader, BE A TEAM!

You've got this: you will climb the ladder to whatever rank you'd see yourself feeling safe or maybe one day become a coach for a team or a group of people, and you'd be happy with the results i assure you.

You don't have to be the highest rank: or look the best playing the game, or even have the most amazing confidence to be an amazing member of the community, just be yourself, because hey, only you can be yourself.

Respect the opposing team: treat your teammates like friends and family, because remember there are real people, that have real problems, and real disabilities and health issues that play league to relieve stress, depression, or other serious issues, so don't make jabs at them or turn a game into more emotion and who's right about this and that or telling someone how to play, and just focusing on winning the game and working together. Try to understand not only their playstyle, as well as them. Trust me no one ever REALLY wants to lose a game no matter what they say or how they say it, they just lose hope gradually as the game goes on, not only in themselves, but in you as well. So just never bringing up others problems, and mistakes, let them know it's alright, that they'll get it next time. The confidence you'll gain not only wins, but sticks with you and you'll see an increase in not only skill in League, but maybe even a difference in real life, with a side of winning more and more games you play as well. You'll maybe even meet some friends a long the way you'd thought you'd never get a long with, or even a special someone for yourself.

Sincerely, Someone who believes in myself & you bettering the community step by step, and becoming a better us!

See you on the Rift and good luck in your future games and endeavors!

Fact: If you just STFU you will win more. People treat this game like it's a rage journal. Stop typing. If you are one of those people that say "why" stop doing that and you will notice less trolls. Cause and effect. YOU MAKE PEOPLE TROLL. Figure it out.

I mean, after all, if your allies keep thinking its a good idea to continue to walk into a jungle unwarded 10 times in a row and die as a result, you shouldn't, say, ask them not to. SPEAK OR SAY NOTHING, IT IS ALWAYS YOUR FAULT. [slayer-jinx-catface]

You don't get it. you never know who you are talking to and how fragile they may be. I am saying that if you mute all and never say a word about anything you will never cause someone to flip out. it's a numbers game. Less "why" less trolls.

Thats a good sentiment. (the next 8 games feature 5 afks and 3 trolls, get demoted to bronze sigh).

I have that attitude, then the game starts, and bot gives up two double kills pre 10 min or top feeds like shark in seal hatchery. How does this matchmaking work, I get the worst teams, I guess Riot wants me to carry vs fed teams.

I agree!! No point in being toxic. This is only a game after all. Sure, I might get upset and need to walk away after a bad game. I won't belittle someone on my team or the other team regardless. Try to keep the game environment a happy one or at least neutral. Those enemies might end up being teammates or friends sooner or later :)

At first I thought this was Ariel the Cruel because of the picture and I was like, yo, what happened to you?! Who are you and what have you done with Ariel?!

But thanks for the love, OP.

You know, our friend here (the wonderful OP) is actually speaking the truth.

When you lose games, you get tilted. Then you make more mistakes, and eventually- might lash out at people. Point of Ranked (or just League of Legends) is to play a team based game. If you can handle your emotions, treat others with a positive attitude and stay focused- you will not only perform better but motivate you team to do the same. I've had games where we were losing, teammates feeling like crap, and all was going to go badly. But, I took the time to talk to them, say that they're good players, and I need their help because I believe in them.

Suddenly, not always- but certain games it becomes our win and people can't believe the comeback. Simply put, you can do very well ... never let a bad game define your skill or quality as a person. This also applies to other people, so instead of raging at them ... be a bro, help em out, and remain the good guy. Oh and if they're long gone & remaining to be super toxic, just mute them. Everyone wins.

Yes, Tired of being called a feeder and people reporting me. I'm knew. I've played maybe 30 matches in Co-op Vs AI and like 5 matches in PVP. Still learning. Instead of people getting indignant, why not show the new players a thing or two. Or must you keep the new players down to make your ego bigger with easy wins?Annie

Today I finally did get to where I wanted to be in League. I uninstalled. http://i.imgur.com/p3mI519.png) Really, I think I'm better off now.

The word toxic doesn't bother me, but it's when the person who is actually toxic is using the word 'toxic' constantly, that's when it starts to bug me. Like this guy is ruining the attitude of our team by flaming then he starts to call random person X toxic, happens every other game.
